With endless gossip of iPhone seen all over the net, lets see what are the other options which people can look for if they don’t like iPhone (yes many people don’t) but want something comparable or even better in some aspects. So we are looking for a smart phone and when we talk of smart phones, we cannot forget Blackberry. This brand has become a status image and someone having Blackberry will always get more attention t doesn’t matter other person standing near him maybe having a bigger flashy smart phone of some other brand. Blackberry Bold is one such model which can be compared with iPhone and it comes out pretty decent in features which is actually someone who need smart phone going to use. With Blackberry brand behind this phone, business users will be more attracted to this phone.

Lets see what main features this phone have, the Blackberry 9000 Bold is equipped with bright display which is really a treat and looks good and readable in daylight too. This phone also have Wi-Fi to connect to internet and there has been no problem with Blackberry sets with browsing, sending mails, instant messaging etc, these phones are built for people who want to stay connected 24×7 on mobile. Maps and GPS feature is also a plus point for people always on move and venturing new places. With all these heavy duty and system demanding features, this phone still works smooth and faster, thanks to powerful 624MHz Intel PXA270 processor which is good enough for any smart phone.

Blackberry Bold is not only designed for business purpose but it’s also a good choice for people looking for a powerful multimedia phone. This phone can play a wide variety of audio and video formats, including MP3, WMA, AAC, DivX4, and WMV3 files which mean less need of converting files from one format to another. Since DivX format is supported, you can also have long videos; even movies without using much space on your memory card, very few phones support DivX. It’s still to be tested if it could play XviD files too. The phone is equipped with a 3.5mm headphone jack so any normal headphone can be used, this is very much preferred by hard core music lovers as they always want to use some better quality headphones and not the stock one! This may sound a positive Blackberry Bold review but really this set doesn’t have any negative points, it’s a great buy if you are not an Apple fan.
